NASA has awarded $2.5 million to the BioS-ENDURES consortium, led by the University of Washington and including WSU and PNNL, to advance space life sciences research supporting human health in space and Earth-based applications.
PNNL's McDearis and Rod designed a new device—a porous soil stake—that, once installed, enables repeated sampling of a specific soil site at multiple depths, without further disrupting the soil.
Research at PNNL and the University of Texas at El Paso are addressing computational challenges of thinking beyond the list and developing bioagent-agnostic signatures to assess threats.
